Now that the dust has settled... How much DID you guys like the OG cast?
So with the new FF:RS game in progress I'm definitely an excited fanboi keeping an eye on all the trailers and promotional announcements. I was really surprised/moved when it was announced and looking forward to playing it.
However there's this thought that kept bugging me. You see, about Season 2/3 into FFBE I had grown to mildly dislike the OG crew. Meme's aside Rain and Lasswell were just a conduit for the game to move along - their characters were empty cliches, horrible/conventient writing and "just weren't cool" to me. I mean Hyoh's design was wicked, a lot of the time I grew extremely apathetic to the team. Let's not even talk about S3+...
Now this is all personal bias, of course, so I would just keep quiet. However it occured to me that playing the new game would involve having the OG cast around a lot... again. Ugh.
Don't get me wrong - I'm still excited by the retelling/remake, and just like FF7R I'm sure there'll be something different and things to both love and hate, but I'm just curious, what's everyone's thoughts going into this? If you love Rainwell, LidxJake no-pedo, Fina's yet-another-identity-crisis, Chair-meta... I'm sorry!
Since I haven't seen any similar posts, just wondering what's on everyone's mind in this regard. No hate here!
